There are so many chairs, swings and large rocks to choose from for staging a dramatic BBQ area to dazzle your dinner guests with. I personally have lately been thinking about cement blocks molded to look like giant Duplo blocks that guests can configure (and turn into a car or bunny if they have the gumption and the muscle).
Our friends across the pond cannot be enticed with such simpletonian and base pleasures. Rather, the next big thing there is the “Helicopter Chair” not to be confused with the OTHER helicopter chair that involves a helmet. Well, it might still involve a helmet depending on who you are and the varying levels of grace of your dismount, or the ease in which you balance a styrofoam divided lunch tray on your lap. (Descriptions have stated that its FUN to swing in them. But they didn’t mention whether you had a glass of wine in your hand or not.)
Unfortunately, I have yet to see these chairs offered in the United States en masse, but to my readers in the UK, you can purchase an entire fleet in variety of hues (black, green, purple, red.) The suspended seat and the canopy match, with a contrasting frame.
One would or two would be a conversation piece. Five or six would look like you opened a hanger…or some sort of a resort. That is the best way to have your neighbors wonder what you are doing over there.
